MARCHING BAND 2022
During the past 3 months, a lot of planning has been going on behind the scenes, and the 2022 Marching Band season launch is officially underway. Below you will find important dates of the registration process. Please keep in mind that physicals must be current in Final Forms by May 1st so be sure to schedule appointments in a timely manner. As you will see below, the registration guide will be released tomorrow via email. The guide outlines all of the registration steps and is a helpful resource to utilize throughout the entire process. We are so excited for the upcoming season!
Important Upcoming Dates for Marching Band Registration:
VOLUNTEERS AND DONATIONS NEEDED FOR AFTER PROM
A small team of parents have plans underway for the band’s sponsored section of After Prom. This year’s After Prom theme is “Let’s Go To The Movies”. The band boosters will be running the “Danger Zone” tattoo parlor. We are in need of student and parent volunteers to set up and decorate our space on Friday, April 22. We will also need parents to run the band’s tattoo shop during After Prom on Saturday, April 23. In case you cannot volunteer your time, we could also use donations of cash and/or supplies. Monetary donations will be used to purchase needed items and decorations. Please note that donations made here will be used in the band booster sponsored area only. We do not receive funds collected by the PTO to support the space we sponsor. Please help us to make this a great event for our well deserving Juniors and Seniors!
